    Until last October, i had been employed, part-time at the very least, by the same studio since 1999. Family health issues and that studio changing locations led me to reduce the number of hours that i worked at the studio, then to the point where i was working completely from home.
    In the meantime, last year i applied for a freelance job on a freelance website and won it. They've been keeping me busy for over a year.
    But then, almost simultaneously, they petered out to varying degrees. i haven't done anything for the studio since Oct and the freelance client has restricted my monthly hours due to his own financial situation.
    i say all that to say this (ok, there's a bit of internet-self therapy going on too, but mostly to say) i have NO CLUE whether i'm any good at anything i do. i suspect i'm a fraud and a hack. The studio i worked at was not completely professonal and the freelance client is coming from a different video guys who, it seems to me, is barely phoning it in. So while my client raves about my work, they have got a distorted baseline to compare it to.
    What's worse is that i don't want to let other people here to see my work as they very well may confrim what i fear. AND THEN WHAT!!!
    At least i have tthis nice hidey-hole of a parlor to cower in

    • That's what i figured. But for some people it must be true, right?locustsloth
